Total Time: 1 hrs 50 mins

Prep Time: 1 hrs 5 mins

Cook Time: 45 mins

Servings: 8

Ingredients
  • 2 cups soybeans
  • 1 medium onion
  • 5 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
  • 8 ounces feta cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 bag frozen spinach

Directions:

  1. Soak soybeans overnight in at least six cups of water.
  2. Cook soybeans in new water until tender.
  3. 3
    Thaw spinach in a bowl in the microwave.
  4. 4
    Saute onion (You could add one green pepper if you like.) Mix soybeans, crumbled bacon bits, onions and spinach together and spread in a large casserole dish.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix crumbled feta cheese, cottage cheese, and one egg.
  6. Spread cheese mixture over soybeans.
  7. Bake in 350 degree F oven 45 minutes until topping is brown and casserole is heated through.
  8. Variations: Use fresh spinach or broccoli or frozen broccoli.
  9. Note: You may need two eggs for binding the cheese to soybeans if feta is particularly dry.
  10. Sometimes I dust the top with a bit of paprika for color not for taste.
  11. You can use more or less bacon.
  12. It is just a teaser to get them to try it.
  13. I've made it without the bacon for a vegetarian friend of mine and she loved it.
